BASIC MECHANICS THERMOPHYSICS ELECTRICITY AND ATOMIC PHYSICS

Learning outcome

With a passed exam / assessment in the subject, the candidate must have the following overall learning outcome defined in the form of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

  • The candidate has knowledge of physical topics that are fundamental to technological subjects.
  • The candidate knows the subject's central methods and can define and explain the most important concepts from mechanics, thermophysics, electricity theory, atomic physics and radiation physics.
  • The candidate has knowledge of the requirements for the experiment.

Skills

  • The candidate can make calculations on kinematic, dynamic and static issues in one and two dimensions.
  • The candidate can make calculations on work, power, oscillations, fluid statics, thermophysical and radiational physical problems, simple electrical circuits and conservation of mechanical energy and momentum.
  • The candidate can calculate sizes and units in the SI system, and master conversion between units. The candidate can identify variables that occur in idealized models with physical quantities in reality. The candidate can conduct experiments in a qualified and safe way, make measurements, interpret results and write a report.
  • The candidate is familiar with simple applications of numerical solution techniques.

General competence

  • The candidate can explain principles of scientific thinking
  • The candidate can communicate with others about scientific issues by using physical concepts and sizes
  • The candidate understands the connection between physics and technological applications
  • The candidate understands the physics subject's ambitions to create quantitative models of natural phenomena

Learning methods and activities

Pedagogical methods:

Classroom teaching, demonstrations, laboratory exercises.

Mandatory work requirements: Two delivered individual samples per. school year and some minor individual work requirements announced in Blackboard. At least 80% attendance per. term. In addition, six submission work based on experiments performed by the students. These can be delivered individually or in groups and must be approved by the specified deadline in order to take the exam.

Compulsory assignments

  • Oblig

Further on evaluation

5 hours individual written final exam (100 %) New and postponed exam: In the event of failure of the final exam, a re-sit exam will be held at the beginning of August. For the exam, it is allowed to use a specific simple calculator, Gyldendals tabeller og formler i fysikk, F1 og F2 og formelsamling i matematikk for vgs, R1, R2.

Mandatory work requirements: Two three-hour rehearsals, one for Christmas and one for Easter. Some minor work requirements announced in Blackboard. Six approved lab reports based on performed lab tasks. At least 80% attendance per. term.

Specific conditions

Admission to a programme of study is required:
